Survey: 72% of Nevadans see improving economy

A survey by the Retail Association of Nevada shows jobs, education and the economy remain the top issues in the state, and Nevadans believe that those issues should be the top focus of state government.

Most respondents, 72 percent, believe that the economy has improved since the worst of the economic downturn, but only 7 percent believe it has improved a great deal while 11 percent believe it has gotten worst, the results show.

Other findings: More people believe that Nevada is heading in the right direction, 48 percent, than on the wrong track, 38 percent, and 57 percent believe that the worst is over for state's economy and 34 percent believe the worst is yet to come.

Additionally, a majority, 61 percent, believe their own household's financial situation has remained the same or gotten worse during the current economic recovery and 37 percent have seen improvement.

The telephone poll was conducted Sept. 27-29 among a representative sample of 500 likely voters in Nevada.
